Week of October 16th

Fall conferences are approaching quickly.  Teachers will be available to meet with students on Wednesday, October 25th from 3:30-7:30 and on Thursday, October 26th from 8:00-7:00.  Please visit this website to schedule conferences with your student's teachers.  Conferences are a great time to connect with teachers and discuss your student's progress.  They are also a chance for you to provide us with feedback on your student's middle school experience.  Ideally you will meet with all of your student's teachers during conferences.  Two-way communication is a crucial component of an effective school. Please take the time to join us during fall conferences.  If you are unable to attend conferences, please contact your student's teachers to schedule another time to meet.

All students who attend public school in Wyoming are required to be vaccinated or complete the waiver process through the State.  As part of these requirements, students need to get the TDAP booster prior to the beginning of their 7th grade year.  If your student is not current on their vaccinations, please take care of this immediately.  Students must be properly vaccinated, or have the proper waiver completed, prior to Monday, November 6th or they will not be allowed to attend classes at LMS.  For more information on vaccination requirements and/or the waiver process, please visit the Wyoming Department of Health website.  You can also contact Mrs. Woodhouse, the LMS, nurse, with any questions regarding vaccination requirements.

In addition to being up to date on vaccinations, all families need to complete infosnap once per school year to ensure that your contact information is up to date.  School Messenger, Schoology, and other applications, pull student information directly from PowerSchool.  It is crucial that we have updated contact and other demographic information on file so that we can communicate effectively with families regarding their students' educational progress and in the unlikely event of an emergency, we can get in touch with a student's families.  If you have not updated infosnap this year, please do so.  You can come into the LMS office to do this or you can do it online.
